Saves The Day Dance In The Glare Of Headlights
when you walk out on the street
it is always quite important to look both ways
before crossing
and i once knew a boy
whose mother never taught him well
he stepped off the curb and got knocked down by a
suburban
he spent fours days in a coma,
his mom and dad stood over his hospital bed
the nurse brought in a plastic bag for his shit
the neurologist did a few tests
and on the fifth day he died
his sister didn't even cry
and i guess she didn't love him anyways
